Hey :) I’m Christian Schaffer, and I’ve lived on the road full-time since May 2018. This journey began in 2013 when I left the corporate world to build my career as an outdoor adventure & travel photographer. After 14 months of SUV living - I bought the van I now call home. Van life enables me to experience and document the beauty of our natural world, while also having my home and office nearby. My hope is that by sharing my own personal highs and lows along this (sometimes) wild journey, you might be inspired to hit the road or spend more time outdoors. Maybe one day I'll see you out on that open road 🚐

*My van is a 2019 Ram ProMaster 1500 High Roof, 136" WB with 67K miles*

Your inconsistency actually adds value to your work. You don't just share your day-to-day but actually let us travel with you to places we probably won't ever get the chance to go visit. I love it.
Thank you 🙏🏻 It’s so cool being able to share these experiences with ya’ll
@@ChristianSchaffer you are a good youtuber and a cool person.
Casinos offer inconsistency - if you win or lose everytime, then you would get bored and not keep playing. Similarily, whenever ChristianSchaffer puts out a video it seems like you gotta watch cause you don't know how long it might be before you get another one to fill your soul.
@@ChristianSchaffer hi i am french i just discovered your channel and i am litteraly shocked…
i swallowed at least 10 videos in a raw since yesterday and i love your lifestyle and your person honestly…
i share your mindset and i am so sad to tell me that i probably will never cross you on the roads as i want to have a van 😢 but i am in the Pyrénées 😮 kisses from France ❤
Agreed ❤
Never apologize.
Your content is always appreciated
I appreciate you 🥲🙏🏻
Just want you to know how wide your reach is. I am 70 year old guy sitting here surrounded by rice paddies in Chiang Rai Thailand and I love every minute of your shared experience here on UA-cam.
You sharing this 100% just made my day 🥹🙏🏻 Thank you
Glad you took time off, you seem refreshed and happy. Your videos are spectacular, if we only get one a month it's worth the wait. Have a great summer.
Thank you 🥲🙌🏻
Posting irregularly just feels so authentic and natural to me. I love when content is created without big preparations and intentions.
No perfect image, light or stabilization is always needed.
It's all about capturing those spontaneous life moments that everyone wants to freeze in their memories .
Your videos inspires me to keep going. Thank You! ❤
Thank you 🥹🤍
Today is a good day! A bad UA-camr? Oh, no! You're one of the best. Christian, you take us places and do things some of us can only dream about, so whether it's one video a week or one video a year -- thank you 🤗👍
I appreciate you! 🙏🏻
It doesn't make you a bad youtuber. It makes you a youtuber worth watching. You inspire and that's the most important skill you can have.
🥹🙏🏻
Always love a brand new Christian Schaffer drop!
Aw shucks ☺️🙏🏻
@@ChristianSchaffer it feels like I’m in the van with you for 20-30 minutes and we’re just gabbing like two best friends without actually being in the van with you. Which would be extra epic but you get what I’m saying. Also right on par with Maati Hapooja and Peter McKinnon level cinema IMO.
Omg omg, SHE IS BACK!!! I literally check your channel everyday and binge-watched all your videos!!
I am so honored! Haha wow thank you
You've always been wonderful love. Your virtual family loves you no matter what. ♥ 😎 🙏
🥲🙏🏻
Wonderful!!! I got a rush when I saw your thumbnail again!
Bad UA-camr? On the contrary!!! The Pinnacle, The Zenith, The Incomparable UA-camr! That best describes you, Christian!
I am so happy for you, that you were able to cut the cord for a little while, and enjoy life with your Friends (I always capitalize that word--it deserves it). This production was worth every minute of waiting! "Big sighs" throughout the video! "Wow's" galore! The footage of the bottom of the waterfall, around 10:30, was "heavy sigh" stuff! Thank you, Christian! Your photography is spectacular. What you said to us, at the end, I will repeat to you now: I appreciate you, more than you'll ever know! Thank you again, for all you do and for all you are. 😊❤
Thank you so much, Russell 🥹🙏🏻
@@ChristianSchaffer Yer velcome, m'dear! 😁
Be "consistent" in what makes you happy! That's (part of) what makes us happy!
I dig this 🙌🏻
I mean this with the utmost respect and admiration, I've never thought of you as a UA-camr. There is a shyness about you that to me felt like you weren't truly comfortable in front of the camera. It sometimes felt forced. But what you are, in addition to being earnest and honest, is an amazing communicator with both your gorgeous visuals and the way you express your thoughts. I have previously commented that you could be a really good filmmaker. And I still believe that. Whether it's something that you want to do is another thing. And I completely agree with your sentiment of not having the need or desire to document everything. Somethings are just meant to be experienced and documented in one's memory, not film. So good for you for not succumbing to what is expected and following what most other UA-camrs are doing. I find the oversharing a bit strange to be honest. I look forward to the next one whenever that is.
Agreed. She's like a poet/philosopher/photographer/story teller, lol. Not your average run of the mill UA-camr at all.
OK, that was INSANE! Swinging on a rope from the cliff and getting it on camera like that.
Absolutely INSANE!
You are so darn good. 😊
It was so much fun, genuinely didn’t want to leave 😅
I was a 15 year old kid in the summer of 1967 when I was introduced to Yosemite Valley and all it's wonders. The park was not as busy as it is these days...one could just roll in and secure a camping spot on the valley floor with no reservations and stay as long as one wanted...sites were first come, first serve. We spent all day enjoying hiking, swimming and sight seeing all of the wonders of the valley. As the day turned to evening we were back at camp on the valley floor and were witness to the Yosemite Firefall...a custom that had started in 1872 and consisted of a huge bonfire created with bulldozers at Glacier Point. As darkness took over the valley the dozers would shove the huge bonfire over the edge of the point and the fire would free fall 3000 feet to the base of Glacier Point over a period of several minutes. It was a magical sight to behold and drew spectators by the hundreds every evening. Little did I know that as I viewed this event it would be discontinued in January of 1968 due the stress the crowds caused on the meadows below. There is really no place quite like Yosemite even under the stress of us "loving it to death". Thanks for sharing your recent adventures there...brought back a lot of memories for this old voyager.
My husband talks about that. He grew up going to church camp there. 😊
Wow, what you are describing about the abundant campsites and lack of crowds…sounds like actual heaven to me. So cool you were able to experience that!
OMG! The FIREFALL!! That was so amazing. I’m lucky that my father shared his love of hiking and nature. Took me on 3 hikes from Mammoth to Yosemite. 3 times solo after that. I’ve been all over the world but Yosemite is still my favorite.
Girl I think you put way too much pressure on yourself for your videos. I for one love what you put out... seeing the seasons change, seeing all the adventures you go on... I love them so much!! You help me remember that there's so much more out there in the world than our day to day stressors. I don't get the chance to travel much, and so it's really great to see so much nature through your content.
☺️🫶🏼
This was worth the wait. Love your content. Your videos, your vision, your stories and the picturesque views you incorporate in every one of your videos, is exceptionally beautiful!
Love the nature of it all, aswell.
Thank you.
Hello from NYC. 🫡
Thank you so much! 🥲🙏🏻
Quinn seems chill even with a camera constantly in his face, complete bro vibes.
He’s the chillest 😎
WOW, I could never stand or sit that close to the edge. You two are fearless.
Heights don’t really scare me. Put me deep underwater or in a dark cave, tho… 😅 watch me freak out big time
@@ChristianSchaffer We're all different, I'm the complete opposite of you. Heights like that, even through videos, just gives me chills, dizziness and anxiety 🙈 In moments like that, you're absolutely fearless in my eyes. But deep underwater or dark cave, not much issues for me though 😅
Your story telling and videography is unmatched, my gal! 🙌🏻💪🏼🔥😘
omg Nikki, you are too kind 🥹🫶🏼 I wish I had even a fraction of your on camera talent and ability to create and share so often. You are goals 💕
Well ..... Thank Youz Twoz for taking us along. Love the Van Quin!
❤
Truly the most aesthetic van I’ve ever seen! 😊 🚙
@@ChristianSchafferWhat is the yellow GameBoy, a speedometer?? Love that little van.
Hoi Christian! Welcome back. Thanks for posting again, always a very big pleasure to see your video. Now I'm going to watch it.😃. A great summer for you too.. currently a thunderstorm is passing the Netherlands... Summer keeps us waiting..
After watching.... I'm not sure what the definition of a 'Bad UA-camr' is..... But you are definitely one of the Best! Thanks for being not regular.... it is a big pleasure to see you and your footage every time!
De lente was anders ook al overgeslagen
Thanks Pieter!! Thunderstorms are my favorite, your comment just reminded me that I haven’t seen one in far too long 🙆🏼♀️
So totally jazzed to see that you posted again. Beautiful work, wonderful insights. Thank you.
Appreciate you, Garry!
I hope you get multi millions of views... ❤😊 You deserve it.
🥹🫶🏼
be bad at youtubing, be great at life instead. no one is mad, however there are those that are super jealous you got to be Spider-Man in Yosemite for two days. that looked so fun!
Appreciate you 🙏🏻 And yeah, at this point…I am jealous of past me haha. I wish I was back there right now!
You inspire me so much! Love this video and message! The balancing act of living life on the road while filming / sharing can be so chaotic, but you sharing your relatable experience like this is honestly helpful, reassuring, and makes me happy for you!!
🙌 thanks for sharing what you do, wishing you the best!
Thanks James ☺️🙌🏻 Road life + filming is a special kind of chaos for sure, haha
I don’t think anyone expects this channel to have a regularity, so don’t stress about it! This is by far my favorite channel to watch and get excited any time you have a new video. I love how raw and honest it is. I would love to travel and see the country like you have, but you’re giving me the chance to see what you experience. ❤
Thanks so much, Justin 🥹🙏🏻
I think you are an *AMAZING PERSON & UA-camR!* Glad that you and Quin had an enjoyable time.
It’s in bold so I know you mean it!! Haha thank you ☺️🙏🏻
@@ChristianSchaffer Absolutely, You're one of my favorite UA-camrs. 🌞
Hey, great to see my favorite videographer back on the UA-cam!
For me all is forgiven, you are an artist.
The AM vid at the falls is in itself enough to make me think of Ansel Adams.
Keep being your best Christian Schaffer!
Appreciate you! 😊
WOW!! Welcome back. It is so nice to se you again and looking so happy with your friends. The video is superfun to watch. You are the best UA-camr there is....Cheers from a finn in Sweden.❤❤❤
Too kind! 🥹🙏🏻
"i feel like i'm constantly scrambling to throw a bunch of random moments together, and then spending way more time than i want to admit, just trying to make it make sense"
you pretty much summed up exactly what we are going through. we try so hard to find the balance between recording content and living in the moment with our family and then when i go to edit a video i'm mad at myself for not recording more so that the video can make sense.. and then we saw we will try it over again next week, or next month, and then repeat it all over again... and now here we are a year later without any videos. your videos are so inspiring and brings hope that we can find the balance and maybe become a decent youtuber again haha thanks for sharing!
Ahh you’re definitely not alone. The struggle is so real sometimes - especially when working from the road on a small laptop, sporadic service and limited hard drive space. Character building for sure, haha…but worth it 😊
Very true comments, guess the majority of us struggles with that. Just great that we still see videos actually going online 😉
Ahh! 3:57, we were standing next to you guys as that backflip took place. I've been waiting to see this vlog! Such a special place Yosemite is ❤
Oh no way!! Small world haha ☺️
We missed you and your content. It's always quality, you may not see it that way, but trust me, it is.
🥹🙏🏻
The Quality of your VLOGs are great! Quantity not necessary. Like a friend it’s nice to see how you’re doing out there 😊
I appreciate you!
You look really happy in this adventure! Your smile is captivating, especially in the segment before climbing Yosemite Falls. Thanks for sharing your life once again 🙌
You are the best kind of youtuber. Your uploads are a prime example of less is more, they are always a joy and its the scarcity that helps make it so. God bless.
that time lapse shot of the clouds perfectly composited in while setting up the tent was killer
And here I thought it was a glitch in the matrix…
Yeah it was !!!
Thank you! I just couldn’t bring myself to let that 20GB file go to waste 😅
You are the exact opposite of a Bad UA-camr. Love your content, love Yosemite. Whatever you capture and decide to share is gonna work for a lot of us...
The fact that you're out there living life to the fullest is what I wait for in your videos. Your video coming up in my feed is such a gift for me whenever you post them. I love all your videos, the calm beauty that you bring to film is a balm to my soul.
No words.. just feelings. Sending my love for you both 🙌✨🤍
She is back!
HOORAY!!!!!
y’all are the best 🥹
@ChristianSchaffer the videos are worth the wait just work at your own pace your content is noticed and always appreciated
I'm honored
Post as you wish. We will all happily be here when you do. Your quality of images, video, editing, and most of all, story telling is far better than most and worth the wait.
Thank You for being here too!
Peace❣️
Christian, your content is so beautiful and inspired I know that when your work drops I have to rest and pause my day to take it in. You’re the only UA-camr I do that for, and it’s because watching your work is a meditation. Thank you for bringing the beauty of nature and your vivid thoughts to our lives 🙏🏻
I am so honored 🥹🙏🏻
Beautiful and compelling as always, just so enjoy your work and life. Thanks so much! And it’s hard to beat The Valley.
It just might be the most beautiful place on earth?? But I’m definitely a little bias 😉
Geez, love how you put this together Christian! That Quin guy seems alright
Yea ! You're alive, you're ok, with friends and having fun !! That's all I wanted to know :) :) :)
Welcome back Christian, your honesty is so refreshing.. take care of yourself, first and foremost. Everything you post is enjoyable!
So glad you are back! What an unbelievable life you make happen. Your are truly gifted. Your videos are breathtaking. Stay safe and continue doing what you do.
🥲🤍🙏🏻
It's good to see you!
We have missed your beautiful videos. We are sure that there are many people who travel vicariously through what you post here.
I always watch your videos with pleasure and when I turn on my computer I check if there is another one. For me these landscapes are exotic and I admire you for how well you are doing.
Christian, most of the comments here reflect the reality that your videos have achieved. People don't want videos every week, but videos that touch our hearts with the quality of the scenes, the soundtrack and the whimsy of the landscapes. Keep being yourself.
I haven't watched this one yet - gotta watch with my wife - but you're not a "bad UA-camr." You don't owe us anything. Life's too short to carry pressure from strangers. Enjoy your time on this planet.
14:17 How cool is that patch of snow on Half Dome that looks like it melts into black varnish down the face. It really reveals how that varnish got there in the first place. You're a pretty great UA-camr.
Yay! Thanks for the preview of Yosemite! I am driving out from Denver at the to stay just after Labor Day. Has been on my bucket list since I was 12. Just turned 63 on Sunday. LOL. Better late than never, eh!? :) And don't worry so much about what others think of your content. We wouldn't be here if we didn't get it. We love your consistent inconsistency. It means your too busy to edit. Not that your too busy to share. We have patience for the good stuff, which you always bring! SO please keep hanging out with the cool friends you have and will make. If they are around you, they are good folks! :) Thanks for being there!
Thank you Glenn 🥲🙏🏻
Thank you! You are not a bad youtuber. You are so talented and have brought me so much joy through your creative journey. Ever since my first and only visit to Yosemite I have always felt that it was my happy place and where I always long to be. Seeing your video tonight makes me want to go back there, and I know I will.
I currently live in a small town in AK and about to go traveling around the more remote AK places, Glacier Bay NP, Lake Clark NP, Gate of the Arctic NP, Kobuk Valley NP and Sand Dunes, along with a flight tour of Denali.
Thank you again for your video, it made me so happy to see you upload again. Much
Thank you 🥲🙏🏻 Your upcoming trips sound pretty epic!!
I don’t think you are a bad UA-camr, if anything it’s the opposite. We the audience go about our lives and when you drop a video it’s a guaranteed enjoyable video. Not many people have that kind of reliably amazing video quality. So yea, you are an amazing UA-camr in my opinion.
Holy cow 09:58 … that’s absolutely gorgeous 😮😍
Your authenticity and amazing content should never be sacrificed to satisfy UA-cam, your work is spectacular. Thank you for letting us share in your love of life and nature!
I've been to Yellowstone last month but Yosemite just has this special place in my heart, nothing can compare. I appreciate you for being so soft spoken and honest, you tell your viewers what you're thinking, that makes your content so special and makes you genuine. Please never stop that but also don't forget to look after yourself and also take a break from UA-cam if you needed :) We are all just people and deserve to take care of ourselves. Every content you show us is incredible and takes my breath everytime! :)
Oh man, that dual shot with the fast clouds and you on the bottom in real-time - gold :) What a great idea!
thank you!! the clouds were so epic that day, I couldn’t resist a timelapse
Your "random moments" are more worth watching than some story. I stopped watching a lot of story videos recently, but I'll aways watch yours.
Live your life! Outside is always better and I am always excited to watch your updates, but I so respect your desire to just be. That is what this life is all about and I wish more people would live by the ideal of being present in as many moments as possible otherwise life just passes us by. Keep adventurin'!
I've watched your channel for years, but never commented. I love your videos! It doesn't matter how far apart they're posted. It's about quality, and yours are thoughtful! I'll be watching as long as you're willing to keep sharing.
What a sweet place to camp! Yosemite is on my bucket list.. I really enjoy watching your videos!! 😊❤️
I normally don't comment on UA-cam, but I''m in a wheelchair since i was 1 and while i probably never could do such hikes or climbs i reallly, really love to at least watch (or live?) them through videos like this. Keep up your content, it's much apreciated❤
Wow. Thank you for sharing a part of your story here ❤️ Truly humbled and grateful that you find value in my work 🥹🙏🏻
You post when it feels good!! I will always be here to watch😊
☺️🤍🙏🏻
the clip with the rolling clouds with you fixing the tent is amazing.
the clouds were so mesmerizing that day
You are my favourite UA-camr because you put thought, time and effort into of your posts. I look forward to each one, no matter how often you post. Thank you for taking us on your journey 😊
Pure magic and then some thanks for bringing all your lenses.
The shot over where you pitched your tent, mind blowing.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😎
Was such an epic campsite 🙆🏼♀️
Thx for serving up so many great videos/photos over the years. Long time subscriber. Cheers from somewhere...
Thanks for being here!! 🥹🙏🏻
i love that you are being just you in this and not having to please everyone. it is actually very pleasant just watching something that exudes joy, peacefulness in nature and just having a good time reflecting.
I appreciate you 🥲
“When everything can be content, where do you draw the line”. That sentence really hit home and even after years of creating content I don’t know where that line is. Even if I’m not filming, I’m thinking I should be filming!
Loved watching your latest adventure and you’ve inspired me even more to get my arse to the US for some epic adventures! Keeping being a ‘bad UA-camr’ because I think it’s what makes your content stand out 👊🏻
You. Go. Girl!!! We are with you all the time and whenever you want us to be. Your work, whenever we see it is the absolute best and worth the wait💚. Wishing you adventure, excitement, peace and contentment in everything you do.
Thank you Kate 🥹🫶🏼
Right on.. 1 of your best vids, u do u, thanks for taking us along..
Went back in April and that place is magical, welcome back!
So good to see you’re back - “I appreciate you more than you will ever know”
I may have watched most of your videos, and this one was aesthetically one of the best [rivals the fire tower video] . So beautiful!
Ah thank you 🥲🙏🏻
Another great video from a bad UA-camr!!! Loved the fast moving clouds while you set up your tent. Looking forward to the next one, next month. 😂
Haha thank you!! 😅🙏🏻
Great to see you back, just love your videos 😊
Thank you Susan! 🤍 Stoked to be back 😊
Yay! G
Thank you for sharing what you've been up to. I enjoy every video you post, no matter how far inbetween. I'm so glad you are doing what you love to do, obviously you find a way to get by. It shows that you love what you're doing, and not becoming a slave to be a "Good UA-camr", I think it's perfect. I must admit I'm scared of heights, so to see the two of you out on the edge of cliffs had this mother screaming at you! HAHAHA. Keep having fun. I have the goal set to be on the road in Nov., hopefully I'll have a bus to build out soon.
thank you, Kris ☺️🙏🏻 That’s SO awesome that you’re building out a bus!!
So beautiful Christian, love your natural self and your honesty, it’s all so beautiful.
Thank you for everything,
Much love & metta,
❤️🙏☺️
The best is always worth the wait, you rock.
🥲🙏🏻
Oh my gosh the ending is so funny. I really appreciate your videos too and UA-cam always notifies me when you have new content so I just enjoy them when they come. Quinn is so much fun too. I've backpacked in Yosemite up to Clouds Rest. That spot you found up above Yosemite Falls is epic. I want to do that. I haven't been to Yosemite for 20 years. It's my 50th birthday this October and I think it's time to go back as part of my celebration.
Great video as always! I am still here and not about to walk away! You Rock! By the way, just love Quinn's little car. So cool!
WOW Thank you , quite refreshing. Life sure can be fun. Thanks for shareing!
By far one of your best posts girl!❤ Doesnt matter if it takes a couple op weeks take your time. You have some great friends doing all these amazing stuff, makes a lot folks very jealous😂 You live your life thats for sure, not many folks can say that! Have fun and stay safe out there! ❤your videos!!
"documenting the world as you see it and sharing". Perfection! so much gratitude for your shares.
I love it! I was just checking for new content yesterday. Thank for sharing your adventures with us ❤
Thanks Esther 😊🤍
Definitely worth the wait. Photography is awesome, thank you for sharing.
This is one of the best videos! Never change! ❤
🥲🙏🏻
Yep, we're still here❤
Don't sweat the small stuff. Be true to you ❤ 😊 We are just riding along with you 🤙
So good to see you Christian! Happy friends, exquisite scenery, your usual awesome cinematography in a spectacular natural lifestyle adventure. It comes through how much you’re in your element. ✌🏼❤️🙂
Can’t help but be happy in a place like this ☺️🍃
Good for you Christian, for prioritizing what is most meaningful in life! Your content and videography rocks!
I so love your channel and content and Great for you to take time for yourself! It is one of the hardest things as a creator to decide when to film or photograph and when not to. I have gotten more strict with this over the years. I recently heard a great quote, 'Be respectful of your own privacy. Don't be too quick to share everything about yourself.' 🙏💞
Nah, comparison is the thief of joy! We love what u call ‘inconsistency’ bc it’s ur channel! We don’t run this thing hahahaha it’s an absolute gem getting the notification that you’ve posted! 5 days a week or 5 days a year, we’d still love u & ur content!
As always a great video. Love that you're doing the "UA-cam thing" your way!
love the surprise posts - especially 20 minute ones!
When everything can be content…. Where do you draw the line?
This has been our battle lately. Loved this video.
The reason you take longer is because your videos are so much more like art. You are literally my favorite UA-camr. Your videos are so inspiring, you can feel the love you have for the natural world through them. Please don't change a thing!
Thank you Kelly 🥹🤍
That was so epic!!! Have always loved your content and cinematography Christian! Thank you, I appreciate you more than YOU know!!😁
🥹🙏🏻
Magnificent. We’ve missed you. Beautiful scenery
